		<description>Ken Lewis may have committed blunders, but the real crooks are&lt;br&gt;sitting in Merrill Lynch. They don&#039;t work at all, they fly all over&lt;br&gt;the world, still spend lavishly while we suffer in the economic&lt;br&gt;recession. They spend 90% of their work day politicking internally to&lt;br&gt;protect their turfs and create their own groups. These arethe true&lt;br&gt;viruses of the BoFA-ML system.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We need to clean up Merrill Lynch where greed and power has been&lt;br&gt;perversed. We need to fire the following people at our shareholder&lt;br&gt;meet:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thomas Montag, the head of global sales and trading at Merrill, made&lt;br&gt;$39.4m in 2008.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;David Sobotka, now in charge of global proprietary trading, was paid&lt;br&gt;about $13m in 2008&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;David Gu, head of Merrill&#039;s global-rates division, made $18.7m in&lt;br&gt;2008, according to the figures.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Merrill&#039;s co-head of commodities, David Goodman, was paid $16.5m last&lt;br&gt;year, the figures show.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Fares Noujaim, who joined Merrill in 2008 and now heads Bank of&lt;br&gt;America&#039;s Middle East and Africa operations, made more than $15m in&lt;br&gt;2008, the figures show.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Peter Kraus, had an employment contract valued at $29.4m, the figures&lt;br&gt;show.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Andrea Orcel, the firm&#039;s top investment banker. Although Merrill&#039;s&lt;br&gt;net loss ballooned to $27.6bn (€22bn) last year, Orcel, 45 years&lt;br&gt;old, was paid $33.8m in cash and stock.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;None of these guys have made money forthe firm, but only lost&lt;br&gt;billions!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;They should be fired at our shareholder meet and under the Patriot&lt;br&gt;Act put behind bars.</description>

<p>David Sobotka, now in charge of global proprietary trading, was paid<br />about $13m in 2008</p>
